Unpacking
The Model G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser is
shipped from the manufacturer in a carefully
packed carton. If you discover the machine is
damaged after you’ve signed for delivery, please
call Customer Service immediately for advice.
Save the containers and all packing materials for
possible inspection by the carrier or its agent.
Otherwise filing a freight claim can be difficult.
Caution: The Model G3183 is a heavy machine,
45 lbs. shipping weight. DO NOT over-exert your-
self while unpacking or moving your machine –
get assistance. In the event that your Hollow
Chisel Mortiser must be moved up or down a
flight of stairs, be sure that the stairs are capable
of supporting the combined weight of people and
the machine.
When you are completely satisfied with the condition of your shipment, you should inventory its
parts.
Piece Inventory
After all the parts have been removed from the
carton, you should have:
• Mortising Machine
• Hydraulic Cylinder
• Handle Bar
•
5
⁄
8'' Chisel Bushing
•
3
⁄
4'' Chisel Bushing
• Chuck Key
• Spindle Extension
• Wood Table
• Hold Down
• Fence
• 4 & 5mm Allen Wrenches
• Flat Head Screw M6-1.0x20mm(2)
In the event that any non-proprietary parts are
missing (e.g. a nut or a washer...), we would be
glad to replace them, or, for the sake of expediency, replacements can be obtained at your local
hardware store.
G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser -5-
Clean up
The column and other unpainted parts of the
Model G3183 are coated with a waxy oil that protects them from corrosion during shipment.
Remove the protective coating with mineral spirits and paper towels. Do not use gasoline or other
petroleum based solvents because of their
extremely low flash points. Do not use chlorinebased solvents – if you happen to splash some
onto a painted surface, you’ll ruin the finish.
WARNING!
Follow the safety rules listed below when
working with solvents:
1. Read and follow all directions and warnings
on the solvent label.
2. Work only in a well ventilated area.
3. Do not work near any type of open flame
(e.g., pilot lights, kerosene heaters, and so
on).
4. DO NOT smoke while working with flamma-
ble material.
5. Paper towels from the cleaning process are
extremely combustible. Dispose of waste
towels so they do not create a fire hazard.
Site Considerations
1. Mounting: We recommend mounting your
Hollow Chisel Mortiser to a bench. This will
prevent the machine from tipping over and to
allow for maximum leverage when mortising.
2. Working Clearances: Consider existing and
anticipated needs, size of material to be
processed through each machine, and
space for auxiliary stands, work tables or
other machinery when establishing a location for your Hollow Chisel Mortiser.
3. Lighting and Outlets: Lighting should be
bright enough to eliminate shadow and prevent eye strain. Electrical circuits should be
dedicated or large enough to handle amperage requirements. Outlets should be located
near each machine so power or extension
cords are clear of high-traffic areas. Observe
local electrical codes for proper installation
of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.
-6- G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser
Circuit Requirements
The motor supplied with the Model G3183 is a
110V single-voltage motor, prewired for 110V.
Under normal use, the motor draws approximately 6 amps @ 110V. We recommend using a 15
amp circuit breaker or a 15 amp slow blow fuse
for 110V operation. This should be satisfactory
for normal use, while preventing motor damage
from high heat caused by overload. If frequent
circuit failures occur when using the Hollow
Chisel Mortiser, contact our service department
or your local electrical contractor. The Hollow
Chisel Mortiser cannot be wired for 220V operation.
This equipment must be grounded. Please
ensure that the Hollow Chisel Mortiser is continuously grounded from the motor to the machine
frame and then to a known ground. Verify that
any existing electrical outlet and circuit you intend
to plug into is actually grounded. If it is not, it will
be necessary to run a separate 12 A.W.G. copper
grounding wire from the outlet to a known ground.
Under no circumstances should the grounding
pin from any three-pronged plug be removed.
Extension Cords: If used, extension cords must
be rated Hard Service (grade S) or better.
Conductor size must be 14 A.W.G. for cords up to
50 feet in length. Your extension cord must also
contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair
or replace extension cords if they become damaged.
CAUTION: Be sure that your particular electrical
configuration complies with local and state codes.
The best way to ensure compliance is to check
with your local municipality or licensed electrician.
Tools Required
The Model G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser has
been largely pre-assembled at the factory.
However, some components must be assembled
or installed after delivery. We have organized the
assembly process into steps. Please follow along
in the order in which we have presented them
here. We also recommend that you spend some
time with the diagrams and parts lists to become
familiar with all the parts before you begin.
Tools Required: Common hand tools are all that
are necessary to assemble this machine.
Specifically, you will need a screwdriver, 4mm
and 5mm hex wrenches (provided) and a Phillips
screwdriver.

SECTION 2: ASSEMBLY
Hydraulic Cylinder
To install the Hydraulic Cylinder:
1. Screw the handle bar into the adjustable gear
on the right side of the mortising machine and
raise the head to its highest position. Figure 1.
Figure 1.
Figure 2.
2. With the head fully extended above the mortis-
er’s base, snap the hydraulic cylinder into the
fittings located on the right side of the head
and at the base of the column. Figure 2.
-8- G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser
Table
To install the table:
1. Position the wood table on the base and
secure with two screws provided. Figure 3.
2. Secure the machine to a suitable work surface
by fastening bolts through the holes provided
in the mortiser’s base. This will eliminate the
possibility of the machine tipping while in use.
Figure 3.
Fence
To install the fence:
Insert the fence bar through the hole in the col-
umn. Figure 4. It may be necessary to back out
the lock knob a few turns so the fence bar will
pass through.
Figure 4.
G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser -9-
Hold Down
To install the hold down:
Slide the hold down assembly over the vertical
post so the fingers extend forward of the fence
over the table. Leave the setscrew loose for now.
Figure 5.
Figure 5.
Figure 6.
Figure 7.
Chisel Installation
1. Remove the chuck cover on the mortiser’s
head by loosening the knobs at the front and
side of the cover plate. Figure 6.
2. Mortise chisels have either a
5
⁄8'' or 3⁄4'' mounting shank. Determine which chisel you want
to use and locate the proper chisel bushing.
Remove the brass screw located on the front,
bottom of the headstock. Figure 7.
Figure 8.
Figure 9.
-10- G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser
5. Feed the bit into the chuck until the tip of the
bit extends between
1
⁄16'' and 3⁄16'' below the
tip of the chisel edge. Once you have properly aligned the bit and chisel, tighten the
chuck with the chuck key provided in the
package.
NOTE: If the bit extends beyond the maximum
3
⁄16'' below the chisel, even when fully engaged in
the chuck, it will be necessary to shorten the
shank of the bit to achieve proper clearance.
4. Insert the bit into the chisel, then insert both
through the bottom of the bushing. Loosen
the brass screw, if necessary, to allow the
chisel and bit to pass by. Push the chisel as
far as it will go into the head assembly.
Tighten the brass screw to hold the chisel in
position. Figure 9.
3. Place the bushing in the opening directly
under the chuck. Align the hole on the side
of the bushing with the threaded hole in the
front of the headstock. Once in place, thread
in the brass screw. Figure 8.
G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser -11-
Figure 10.
Chuck Extender
The use of the chuck extender is only necessary
if the chisel is too short to reach the chuck. The
extender will lower the chuck approximately 1''.
To install the extender:
1. Remove the chuck cover on the mortiser’s
head by loosening the knobs at the front and
side of the cover plate.
2. Hold the motor shaft in place with a 10mm
wrench. Insert a phillips screwdriver into the
chuck key hole and unscrew the chuck in a
clockwise direction. Figure 10.
3. Thread the chuck extender onto the end of
the motor shaft then thread the chuck on.
4. Lightly tighten the chuck onto the extender.

Headstock
SECTION 3: ADJUSTMENTS
The handle bar on the Model G3183 Hollow
Chisel Mortiser raises and lowers the head by
rack-and-pinion gearing. The handle bar can be
adjusted for comfort and maximum leverage by
loosening the nut at the end of the pinion shaft
just enough for the right and left adjustable gears
to disengage. Figure 11.
Figure 11.
Fence
The fence can be moved forward and backward
to adjust for each project. To move the fence,
loosen the lock handle at the side of the column,
move the fence to the desired position and re-
tighten the handle. Figure 12.
Figure 12.
G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser -13-
Hold Down
The hold down is designed to prevent the workpiece from lifting when the chisel is retracted. The
hold down should be adjusted so it just comes in
contact with the workpiece – allowing it to move
side-to-side, but not up and down. To adjust the
hold down, loosen the setscrew at the vertical
post, move the hold down to the desired height
and tighten the setscrew. The hold down can be
flipped upside down to accommodate larger
stock. Figure 13.
NOTE: Ensure that the hold down is centered so
its fingers do not interfere with chisel movement.
The vertical post is flattened on one side. Position
the hold down so the setscrew meets the flat surface.
Figure 13.
Depth Stop
The depth stop rod allows you to control the
depth of your mortise cuts by limiting the distance
the head can be lowered. To set the desired mortising depth, lower the head until it is a proper distance from the table. Loosen the setscrew on the
left side of the head and drop the depth stop rod
until it touches the base.Tighten the setscrew.
Figure 14.
Figure 14.
-14- G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser
Head Adjustment
Proper adjustment of the head and column is
necessary to ensure that mortiser travel is
smooth and precise. Two bolts located at the
back of the head control the tightness of the head
and column. If movement of the head becomes
sloppy, tighten the bolts until the travel is smooth
and solid. Should the head movement become
too difficult, loosen the bolts until movement is
satisfactory. Figure 15.
Two setscrews mounted just forward of the bolts
ensure that side-to-side movement is minimal. If
head displays excess wiggle from side-to-side,
loosen the locknuts and tighten the setscrews
until movement is eliminated. Tighten the lock-
nuts. Figure 16.
Figure 15.
Figure 16.

Caution
Always wear ANSI-approved safety
glasses or goggles when operating
equipment. Do not allow visitors into
your workshop when testing or operating equipment.
SECTION 4: OPERATIONS
Safety Rules
• Before machine inspection, maintenance or
changing accessories: Turn off switch, unplug
power cord and wait for all moving parts to
stop.
• Keep hands away from the chisel and bit
while this tool is being operated.
• Always have the chisel opening facing away
from the operator or the fence.
• The bit should reach full speed before begin-
ning a cut.
• Always feed chisel evenly and smoothly.
• Do not touch the chisel during the mortising
operation.
• Never leave the mortiser running unattended.
This sums up our review of safety guidelines.
Remember that every shop has its own specific
hazards. Be sure, above all else, to use good
common sense and reasonable caution each
time you start this Hollow Chisel Mortiser, or any
woodworking machinery. Proper safety standards rarely take any more time or energy when
followed religiously. Develop a habit of safety.
Earlier in this manual we covered general shop
and machine safety rules. This section will
address safety rules specific to your mortiser.
• Be sure to observe all electrical requirements
such as fuse sizing, wire sizing, machine
grounding and any other electrical consideration.
• Always wear eye protection while operating
this mortiser. Also use a respirator to avoid
breathing dust. All safety equipment must be
ANSI approved.
• Always be aware of the condition of the wood
you are mortising. Pay particular attention to
knots, splits, and other potentially dangerous
areas.
• Never attempt to operate the mortiser with
bits or chisels that are dull or damaged. They
will burn the wood and cause it to bind.
• Maintain the mortiser in proper working condi-
tion. Perform machine inspections and maintenance services promptly when called for.
• Always put adjustment tools away after use.
-16- G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser
Once the assembly is complete and the adjustments are done to your satisfaction, you are
ready to test the machine.
Turn on the power supply at the main panel.
Press the START button. Make sure that your finger is poised on the STOP button, just in case
there’s a problem. The Hollow Chisel Mortiser
should run smoothly, with little or no vibration or
rubbing noises. Strange or unnatural noises
should be investigated and corrected before
operating the machine further.
WARNING: DO NOT attempt to investigate or
adjust the machine while it is running. Wait until
the machine is turned off, unplugged and all
working parts have come to a rest before you do
anything!
If noises occur that cannot be found by visual
inspection, feel free to contact our service department for help.
Test Run
1. Place the workpiece on the table and adjust
so chisel is aligned correctly for desired
mortise cut.
2. Secure the fence so the workpiece is firmly
supported.
3. Position the hold down as described earlier,
so upward movement of the workpiece is
eliminated.
4. Turn power on.
5. Lower the head by pulling the handle bar
down with your right hand, while supporting
the workpiece with your left hand. NOTE:
Be extremely careful to avoid the chisel with
your left hand. It is very sharp, and friction
will make it hot enough to cause burns to
your skin. Figure 17.
Mortising
Figure 17.
G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser -17-
Figure 18.
6. The chisel and bit will cause some smoking
as it contacts the workpiece. This is caused
by friction heating resins in the wood. This
does not necessarily mean that the chisel is
dull. More likely, a dull chisel will cause the
head to be difficult to lower.
7. An even pressure on the handle bar will pro-
vide the best mortising results. The rate of
penetration should be fast enough to avoid
burning the tip of the bit, but slow enough to
avoid stalling the motor.
8. Placing a piece of wood between your work-
piece and the mortiser’s table when throughcutting will minimize tear-out.
9. When mortising thin stock, build up the
height of the workpiece enough for it to clear
the fence, so the hold down will function correctly.
10. When making rectangular mortises, we rec-
ommend you follow the sequence of cuts
shown in Figure 18.

-18- G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser
SECTION 5: MAINTENANCE
Lubrication
The Model G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser
requires a minimum of maintenance. The operator should clear the machine of wood chips after
every use and periodically wipe the machine of
dust and grime. All of the bearings within the
machine are lubricated and sealed at the factory,
so lubrication by the operator is unnecessary. A
periodic application of light oil on the rack-andpinion gearing will insure smooth operation
between the head and column.
Make a habit of inspecting your Hollow Chisel
Mortiser each time you use it. Check for the following conditions and repair or replace when necessary.
1. Loose mounting bolts.
2. Worn switch.
3. Worn or damaged cords and plugs.
4. Any other condition that could hamper the
safe operation of this machine.
